Throwing Knives

Nothing feels better than launching a throwing knife toward a 4-inch bullseye and watching it firmly stick right in the middle. Knife throwing is as much of an art as it is a hobby because it requires concentration, practice and skill that will impress anyone in sight. While you can throw any knife at a target, it won't provide the precision and accuracy of a throwing knife specifically designed for the task.

Our selection of throwing knives has something for knife throwers of all levels and includes everything from throwing axes to throwing cards. If you're interested in becoming skilled in the art of knife throwing, check out our beginners guide to throwing knives for everything you need to know about getting started. Get in on the action with a throwing knife of your own.

Throwing Knife Safety

When learning to use your throwing knife, make sure that your practice area is located in a safe place. You should have a clear view of your surroundings in all directions, so if someone enters the area you can stop throwing your knife. Spectators are always welcome, but they should stand at least 10 feet behind you. Sometimes, a throwing knife can bounce back and could cause injury. And of course, never throw your knives at people or animals.

Awesome set of knives! When I received these I was kinda worried that the very sharp tip would bend/break easily but I am glad to be wrong. I have owned and thrown these on a regular basis for over a year and there is absolutely nothing wrong with them. I read a review that said these knives bent by being thrown hard.
1; If you're looking to start throwing knives, after you place your order,go find a couple log rounds! (About a 6" thick cut off from a downed tree). If you don't have access to a chain saw, you can just stop anytime you see a crew removing trees. Walk over and tell them you will pay them to cut a couple rounds for you, I offered a guy $5 and he was glad to cut me some. If possible,try to get a soft wood but honestly,any will do.
2; Throwing a knife hard is not only destroying your chances to ever form a good muscle memory but it's extremely dangerous! A very hard thrown knife can come back at you as fast as you threw it. There is no need to "power" the knife into a target. Throw it like you were playing baseball with your kid, not a major league catcher.
I hope this post helps at least one person trying to get into throwing knives. It's a somewhat challenging,fun and very rewarding hobby. Kit Rae knives are a very good choice for a beginner or a long time thrower.
